The Cooling Shower & Shampoo L TURBO creates a biomimetic, skin-identical thermobran© microfilm in the uppermost layer of the skin. This microfilm is made of natural biopolymers and, when showered before or after a workout, provides immediate, very strong cooling of the skin and surrounding tissue, followed by a long-lasting cooling effect. The thermoactive biopolymer microfilm not only has a highly refreshing effect: when applied before workouts, it counteracts even excessive overheating and, especially on very hot days, also boosts performance by intensively cooling the body before and even during long workouts.
In detail, this means: The thermobran© microfilm has a "heat-reflecting" effect, meaning it blocks heat absorption from the outside (thermal shield). It also releases moisture to the inside, allowing heat energy to be released from the body tissue to the outside more quickly than usual (thermal bridge).
The thermobran© microfilm is a carrier of active ingredients. You don't just feel cold like with conventional cold showers; instead, a truly measurable temperature difference is created on the skin, which regulates heat exchange with the environment and thus cools the tissues through heat dissipation to the outside.
The long-lasting cooling effect is controlled and regulated (“cooling control”): The cooling of the skin is intensified by activity when needed and then reduced again as needed.
Cooling Shower & Shampoo L TURBO is colorless and hypoallergenic, meaning it poses no risk of irritation to the skin.
Cooling Shower & Shampoo L TURBO is therefore extremely well tolerated and can be used as often as desired. It can also be used near the eyes (without contact) or on open areas or wounds.
Physical cold effect (measured on the skin):
- starts with application,
- at least 15°C colder for at least 30 minutes and
- then, depending on the product variant, up to 5°C colder for 3 – 5 hours.
Cold effect felt:
- starts with application,
- Intensity (strength and duration) is perceived differently by each individual.
Comparison of the cooling effect of conventional cold showers:
- starts with application,
- no real, i.e. physically (on the skin) measurable cooling effects are achieved,
- purely sensory, i.e. only perceived cold perception,
- Duration of perception depends very much on skin type.
The Cooling Shower & Shampoo L TURBO also features pH-balance© technology: It buffers the skin's pH value in the neutral range of 5.5. This prevents the risk of sweat eczema associated with alkaline post-sweating.
The Cooling Shower & Shampoo L TURBO is:
- breathable,
- sweat-resistant,
- (salt) water resistant and
- friction-resistant.
